 bessel-derivatives
 ==================
 
-boost bessel derivatives
+--------------------------------------------------------
+General Information
+--------------------------------------------------------
+
+This is a partial Boost.Math area for:
+
+* Bessel function derivatives
+* This work is being developed for Anton Bikineev's magister thesis research
+
+--------------------------------------------------------
+Project details
+--------------------------------------------------------
+
+This project adds several new files to the existing file structure
+of Boost.Math. These new files contain the implementations of
+Bessel function derivatives.
+
+Upon successful completion of this project, the candidate files
+in this project may potentially be merged to and/or included
+in Boost.Math.
+
+--------------------------------------------------------
+Using this project with Boost
+--------------------------------------------------------
+
+The files in this project can be used with an existing Boost trunk
+or with a distribution of Boost. Do note, however, that at the time
+this project is being written, the files require the trunk in order
+to compile.
+
+The way to use these files with an existing Boost trunk or distro
+is to include the base directory of this project in the "C++ way".
+The added include path of this project should be placed *before* the
+include path of the Boost trunk or distro.
